/// her honor we dedieate this book
Whaf a pleasure it is for us +0 recall the pleasant scenes of boyhood! The days
of carefree play always bring memories that give joy to our heart and yet in the
midst of our happy playing what a blow it was to realize that parental authority was
beckoning to us. In the enthusiasm of our indulgence in a game, we may not for
a time have heard the summons. Then an older person passing by would tap us on
the shoulder and tell us: "Your mother is caLing you."
On November I, 1954, Our Holy Father Pope Pius XII, in inaugurating the Marian
Year tapped the shoulder of the Catholic World to remind us that Our Heavenly
Mother is calling us. Why is she calling us? Because she has a way out of the difficulty
which enmeshes the world. Her counsel is the same as that given to the waiters of
Cana in Galilee, "Whatsoever He shall say to you, do ye." Our Mother bids us
hearken to the mes:age of the Prince of Peace, Her Own Divine Son.
As we step out to assume responsibility for the conduct of our lives in this Marian
Year, what a comfort it is for us to know that Our Blessed Mother is calling us to take
refuge under the mantle of her powerful and unfailing orotection. What assurance
is born of the recollection that "never was it known that anyone who had recourse to
her protection or implored her help was ever left unaided."
Mindful of our Blessed Mother's personal and perpetual interest in us, and pledging
ourselves to be her faithful petitioners, now and at the hour of our death, we dedicate
this 1954 Explorer to her!

From many nations, as well as from our own alumni, come the men who forrrt La Salle's faculty. The
day and evening schools can boast of many teachers of true erudition who compose their respective
faculties. In addition to this, during our stay at La Salle they have constantly lent sympathetic under-
standing to the multiple problems that can arise in an undergraduate's life. We take this opportunity
to thank the members of La Salle's faculty.

OUR JUBILARIANS
For sixty years Brother Elesbaan Felix has
worn the habit of the Brother of the Christian
Schools. This habit holy in its associations as
it is, is but the covering for a heart totally de-
voted to the love and service of his Divine
Master.
For many of his sixty years, Brother Felix has
given the best of his talent and the shining light
of his exemplary example to the progress of
LaSalle. In felicitating him on his diamond jubi-
lee, we, at the same time thank him for his
generous contribution of service in promoting
the growth of our college.
Pray for us. Brother, that the "well done"
which crowns your efforts may be our privilege
to win also.
The graduating class of La Salle gladly joins
the ranks of the many friends of Brother George
Lewis, who find it such a delight to congratulate
him on his Golden Jubilee. Brother George Lewis
is a man who has written his name large in the
annals of our school by reason of the nobility
of his character and the superiority of his teach-
ing and administrative service.
Have a real happy Jubilee, Brother, and re-
member that as we prepare to leave La Salle,
we pledge ourselves to hold you in grateful
memory. We hope that your joy in the years
to come will be increased by the knowledge
that we have profited by your example and
your teaching.

The exfra-curricular activities in which a La Salle
man may participate are numerous and well diversi-
fied. Besides sports, a student may pursue inter-
ests in journalism, dramatics, debating, music, and
a host of other fields, some of which the student
may select because of their direct connection with
his major subject; others are joined for their more
social aspects. Whatever the activity, its function
is to provide recreation, relaxation, and a develop-
ing interest in the things the particular organization
is promoting.

COUNCIL
The two four-class dances this year were, as has been the custom, the
Harvest Dance and the Blue and Gold Ball. The former, an informal
affair, was held at the Broadwood Hotel. The latter, the formal dance
of the year, was at the Bellevue Stratford, with Charlie Spivalc's band
providing the entertainment. Both dances were well attended and
were considered tremendous successes. ABOVE. The Blue and Gold Ball

The male chorus takes its pitch from
crooning Bob Schaefer, who holds the
microphone as Mr. Rodden listens with
rapture (?). The "Rodden Touch"
placed "Babes in Arms" in the hit
category.
The musical this year was the first off-Broad-
way production of Rodgers and Hart's tune-
ful "Babes in Arms." The worried expressions
on the faces of Dan Rodden, the director, Joe
Colontonio, the musical director and Nancy
Budzik, the choreographer, were premature.
The large audiences were delighted wit;i the
show during its five-night run.
Ticket seller Heller, players Bob
Schaefer, Gerry Faiss, and Bob

who scored a big hit in the singing

THE MASQUE OF LA SALLE
The Masque, //hich was reactivated this year after a lapse of several years, made
more progress than any other club on campus in so short a time. Tv/o shows In
rather quick succession were given under Masque auspices and both were received
enthusiastically by all.
74
Three of the masterminds behind La Salle's productions this
year were the Masque's hardworking president, Ace Bradley,
Its talented set designer, Jack Lombard and its tireless ticket
chairman, Ed Heller. Here, Lombard's newest sketch meets
with the approval of Bradley and Heller.
The Board of Governors and
other members of the Masque
are shown here. The Board,
an eleven member group
elected from the Masque
membership, is the policy-
making body of the organiza-
tion.
The year's straight play was the Thurber-Nugent hit, "The Male Ani-
mal." Well acted and with an excellent set, tha play was a combina-
tion of the battle of the sexes and a cheer for academic freedom.

The l.R.C. had an upsurge of
activity this year as Bill

vided the members with a
series of expert guest speakers,
debates, and films. Most of
this can also be credited to
the active interest taken in the
group by its moderator, Mr.
Robert Courtney.
CHYMIAN SOQ}E\\
The Chymian Society is or-
ganized for the purpose of
fostering interest in chemistry.
This society received a charter
in 1949 from the American
Chemical Society as a chap-
ter of student affiliates. Lec-
tures, movies, plant visits, and
various other projects includ-
ing some social activties
constitute the programs held
bi-weekly. Students majoring
in chemistry are eligible for
membership.
HISTORICAL SOCIETY
The History Club this year had a large increase in membership. It sponsored social functions, meetings
with various guest speakers and, perhaps its most interesting undertaking of the year, took part in the
radio quiz show "Challenge the Champs" on which they achieved several victories, running on the pro-
gram for seventeen weeks. The credit for the club's success this year lay in the ability and hard work
of the officers. Above, Bob Freed, club President, initiates one of the discussion periods which the
club engaged in. The other officers wers Charles De Marco, Vice-President; Joe Burns, treasurer, and
Norman Pyle, Secretary.

A.E.D.
A chapter of this National Premedical Honor Society has
been established on the La Salle campus. It is known as the
Pennsylvania Delta chapter. The object of this society is:
(1) To encourage excellence in premedical scholarship.
(2) To stimulate an appreciation of the importance of
premedical education in the study of medicine.
(3) To promote cooperation and contacts between medi-
cal and premedical students and educators in devel-
oping an adequate program of premedical-education.
(4) To bind together similarly interested students.

FABRICIAN SOCIETY
The Society presented a full schedule of
events designed to provide its mem-
bers with a more intimate knowledge of
the medical profession. There were num-
erous lectures by prominent scientists and
various other meetings.
The Fabriclan Society is open to all students interested in the biological
sciences. Founded in 1933 as the Premedical Society of LaSalle College,
it succeeded in erecting on the campus a chapter of Alpha Epsilon Delta,
Its aims, therefore, are similar to thoss of the latter group.

SOCIOLOGY CLUB
GAVEL
The Gavel had an exfremely successful season of debaimg. Two of its members came In for special
honors. Joseph O'Brien, Its past president and present secretary was adjudged the best debater in
the St. Joseph's Tournament. A like honor was bestowed on William Henhoeffer, next year's president,
at the Fredericksburg Tournamenh. From the St. Joseph's encounter, La Salle brought home a cup
which dwarfed the N.C.A.A. trophy In the book store window.
Basil Andrulk, this year's president, leaves the office with the club stronger and with the year capped
with a successful banquet.
NEWTON/AN SOCIETY
The Newtonian Society is an academic organization devoted to the Interests of students in the
physical sciences. The society sponsors frequent lectures, given by the faculty, members, or invited
guests.
The Newtonian Society likewise supports other activities of a scientific or social nature, as the oppor-
tunities of the school calendar and the Interest of the members direct.
84
GLEE CLUB
Tradilionally, the Glee Club at LaSalle has been a symbol
of the high appreciation of the finer things of life found
among LaSalle men. Not only has the Glee Club been a
musical group; it has always been a friendly group whose
members were held together by a fraternal spirit of com-
radeship. We will long remember all of the concerts and
Christmas serenades conducted during our four years at
LaSalle.
The Club Officers, Joe Kearney, Dick Blaszczy, and Al Pierce,
who conducted the year's activities.
Dealing less with credits and debits, and more with the social
aspects of accounting, the society of future C.P.A.'s did,
however, combine with their socializing, various projects and
speakers designed to acquaint the members with opportunities
in the accounting field.

Here, most of the members of the
S.B.K. fraternity pose with their
moderator, Brother Cyril, outside
College Hall. Definitely not a fra-
ternity of strangers, the S.B.K. is
the only social fraf on campus.
In the spring of 1947, the Gannma Chapter of Sigma
Beta Kappa was formed on the campus of La Salle
College. A national Catholic organization devoted
primarily to the development of character and campus
leadership on the basis of a strong sense of Christian
morality, the fraternity membership is limited by its
charter to a small segment of the student body.
Any undergraduate of the College may be pledged
to S'gma Beta Kappa, the deciding factors In the se-
lection of new members being the ability of the pledge
to carry out the aims of the group.
Each chapter of the National Fraternity is required
to adopt as a secondary aim some political, social, or
economic phase of Catholic action. Prior to the fi/ial
approval of its charter and by-laws at the end of the
Summer of 1947, La Salle's Chapter, in a unanimous de-
cision of its charter members, voted to advance a sound
program of Catholic Youth Welfare.

Fonde toured America under tha sponsorship of the National Educational Association to study the
systems employed by outstanding American teacher training colleges. Besides the courses in educa-
tion offered at La Salle, M. De Fonde heard of the other educational projects sponsored by the Educa-
tion Society, such as lectures by various principals and teachers of the Philadelphia school system.

Artilfery center of the world, Fort Sill, Oklahoma.
In no other organization in the school are the. members more closely bound to each
other. Both the military staff and the cadet corps have contributed much to the college
in displaying ardent school spirit.
In February the members of the Senior Class of the ROTC
were taken on a tour of our nation's capital, being billeted
at Fort Meyer for the three days of their stay. The high
point of the trip was the meeting with Richard Nixon at
which meeting each cadet was personally introduced to our
Vice-President.

CROSS-COUNTRV
Frank Wehler, stellar coach,, has guided our
Explorer Harriers for several seasons now with
a good deal of success. The lack of depth on
the squad has never hindered him in any way
from keeping La Salle consistently in the
winning columns.
Joe Merkins splits the tape after completing
the four-mile course in a speedy 23:34.5 per-
formance, outclassing such stellar Penn har-
riers as Maltest, Randenbrush and Bluard.
The Wetzlermen finished the season with a
.500 mark, 3 wins and 3 losses. The Explorers
wound up the season by capturing second place
in this all-importapit intercollegiate meet, ahead
of 12 other entries. Considering the difficult
schedule maintained by the squad Coach Frank
Wetzler was well pleased with this season's per-
formance. The highlight of the entire season
was capturing second place in the all-important
MAC meet which closed the current campaign.
La Salle headed 12 of the thirteen entries. The
MAC victory was a fitting climax to the team's
spirit which dominated the squad throughout
the entire season.

SOCCER
La Salle's soccer team this year had two tre-
mendous obstacles facing it. The major part of
the squad consisted of players who had no
previous experience in college soccer. Added
to this was a back-breaking schedule which
matched La Salle with an array of experienced
teams. The result was a season which produced'
one victory and seven, defeats.
In spite of this record, individual perform-
ances were excellent and the confidence and
skill gained this year should aid next year's
booters tremendously.
Joe Smith, the booters' coach, must be
congratulated on the Increasing skill In
soccer which he was able to give the
novices of the soccer team. Even with-
out Ciecica and Masterson next season.
Coach Smith can look forward to a
team seasoned by this year's experi-
ences.

RIFLE TEAM
One of the newest, but one of the most active teams on
campus Is the Rifle team. Captained by Bob Richards, left,
who won the graduation award of the Saber in recognition
of his achieving the highest scholastic average of a Military
Science student, the team had a relatively good season
engaging in weekend meets with various other schools.
Two reasons for the team's successful season are the unstint-
ing efforts of Major Finkle and Captain Pannel who coach
the team. Their personal interests and hard work have
made the team one of the leading exponents of the College's
school spirit.

Swimmers Win Metropolitan
Swimming Crown; Penn Second
Hti
By TOM DEVLIN
Among ihe cups and trophies
won by the Explorer teams this
year, this one, representing
the winning of the first CIt/
Championship In an inter-col-
legiate swimming meet, takes
its place of honor.
La Salle's swimming team, with an amazing show of strength in almost every event,
became the first holder of the title, Philadelphia Metropolitan Intercollegiate Swimming
Champion. Seven cofleges participated in the meet held in VUlanova University's dooI
on VlTednesday, March 10. La Salle<> ^
topped the point production with
70. The University of Pennsylva-
nia followed closely with 61. Tem-
ple was third with 32, followed by
PMC 8. Villanova and Drexel 6
each, and West Chester 2. The Red
and Blue,' and the Explorers were
locked in a close scoring battle
throughout almost the entire
meet, with neither gaining the
upper hand until the ninth event
when La Salle's Chick McLaughlin
and Joe Hockenbrock took first
and second places in the 440 yd.
freestyle to clinch the meet.
Penn and La Salle dominated
the trial events, which were .held
Wednesday afternoon. The Blue
and Gold placed sixteen men in
the finals, while Penn had four-
teen. These extra places were a de-
ciding factor, since The Red and
Blue took five first places to the
Explorer's four, and Temple's one.
The meet was scored 6-4-3-2-1 for
the first five places in the individ-
ual events. 10-7-5-3-1 for the med-
ley relay, and 12-8-6-4-2 for the
freestyle rplay. It was the large
number of second and third places
which enabled the Explorers to
win.
Two record breaking perform-
ances were turned in. The first was
by Penn's medley relay team of
Parland and Johnstone, Carlos Al-
yerez and Walt Herman. Their
time was 3: 10 J. breaking the old
standard of 3:12.2. set in 1938 by
PranlcUn and Mar.shall. George
Haggerty broke his own pool mark
In the 200 yard breaststroke with
a 2:29.6, his best performance this'
year.
Penn's win in the medley relay
put them off to a three point lead.
10-7, as La Salle's team of Paul
Mlsura. Ted Priel and John
Schmidt took second place. In the>
ocrt event, the 220 yd. freestyle,
the Explorer's put forth the most
outstanding team effort of the
toeet. sweeping the first three
places. Penn was shut out entirely.
as Temple placed the other two
men. Joe Hockenbrock took top

Gola, the Great, who best exemplifies the theory of stopping
your opponent by not letting him get the ball, bats the ball
away from Ionian forward Leibespach. Tom's defensive genius
was one of the key factors in the Explorers' success through-

LaSalle Captnres Fifth
La Salle won their twen-
tieth game of the season by
downing the hapless St. Jo-
seph's Hawks. 78-64 last Sat-
urday night at Convention
Hall. The Hawks were fired
up for only one quarter, the
first, and as for the rest of
the game "they shoulda stayed in
bed." Combining a tight defense
and the "hot hands" of Tom Gola
and Frank Blatcher, La Salle com-
pletely outclassed their untalented
opponents.
Win City Title
In beating the Hawks, La Salle
won for the fifth consecutive year
the City Collegiate Championship,
and the second straight Robert V.
Geasey Memorial Trophy. The Ex-
plorers record this year was three
and one, in this round robin tour-
ney. In taking this championship.
La Salle's national rating took a
shot in the arm and once again
accented La Salle's mastery of lo-
cal competition.
St. Joe Takes Lead
La Salle started slowly as St.
Joe took an early lead of 4-0. There
was sloppy ball handling and
ragged shooting on both sides in
the initial ten minutes. St. Jo-
seph's led at the quarter 15-13.
Gola and Company warmed up to
the situation and tore the Hawks
defense to shreds as the Explorers
spurted to a 36-29 margin at half-
time.
Gola Stars
Starting the second half of the
"contest" the Explorers continued
to tear the Hawks apart. St. Joe
had trouble with the 2-3 zone em-
ployed by the Blue and Gold, being
forced to shoot from the outside.
It was in the third period that
Tom Gola put on a blistering dis-
play of floor work and rebounding.
In this session "Long Tom" stole
the ball numerous times to thwart
potential Hawk points r There were
at one time three successive in-
tercepted passes that resulted in

FRANK O'HARA
Much has been made of Frank's height. On the
street, his five feet, nine inches are more than
average; but on a basketball court which has be-
come the home of the cloud skimmers, Frank some-
times looks like a visitor from Lilliput. h-lis perform-
ance, however, goes to prove that height is cer-
tainly not the only criterion of a good basketball
player. His consistently great performances on the
court and his hustling team spirit have made
"Wacky" a keystone of the Explorer's winning
teams.
Frank makes his home in OIney. He was gradu-
ated from La Salle High School in 1950 where he
and Tom Gola were team mates. Frank is the only
senior member of the squad and here at La Salle
as a pre-law major he has run up quite a record.
He has been on the Dean's Honor List throughout
his stay and his academic prowess will see him
graduate "magna cum laude" this June.
With this graduating class, as with the whole
school, "Wacky" graduates with the best wishes
not only of this senior class, but with those of the
whole school for his athletic and scholastic ab'riities
and for what is probably most Important his deep
sincerity and rightful claim to the title "nice guy."
TOM GOLA
Junior Tom Gola has been honored with just
about every award possible. All-Amerlcan, most
valuable player in the N.C.A.A., All-Eastern and
All-Catholic are among the accolades that have
been his. Tom has helped La Salle gain a national
reputation sportswlse.
The six feet, seven Inch OIneyite came to La Salle
College from the La Salle High School from which
he was graduated after a stellar career with their
basketball team In 1951.
Tom is a business major with a very respectable
scholastic average and a modest personality that
has made him liked by everyone on campus.
So, this Is the Explorers salute to a fellow who
has already been honored by "Look," "Collier's,"
United Press and Associated Press polls, and
"Sports Magazine" — In addition to many others.
We can't think of any better tribute than that of
Ken Loeffer's: "He is the greatest basketball player
who has ever lived."
106
Our little man "Wacky" makes use
of this opportune moment to lay
in "Two" for La Salle.
A pass from Sola to O'Malley in
the pivot results in a leap, a shot,
and a basket.
Under the watchful eye of FranJc
O'Hara, La Salle's All-American,
Tom Gola, lumps, shoots and makes
it look easy.
107
KEN LOEFFLER
Ken Loeffler came +o La Salle a year before the
Class of 1954. To attempt to acclaim the brilliance
of this mastermind of basketball would indeed be
folly, but such an attempt must be made.
When the versatile Mr. Loeffler agreed to come
to tutor the Explorers, he had behind him many
years of sound coaching. He worked successfully
with teams like Yale, among the colleges, and the
St. Louis Bombers, among the pros.
The first thing Ken did at La Salle was to install
a new system — one which stressed team balance.
The success, he has had is demonstrated in two
ways —
(1) hlls flawless use of an All-American as a
member of a team, a team composed not of one
star, but of five capable ball players;
(2) The remarkable 119 and 25 record he has
compiled in the past five years at La Salle.
Ken has led the Explorers to participate in four
years of NIT play with a championship in that
tourney in 1952. His crowning achievement was the
winning of the NCAA championship in 1954, the
first year La Salle had been invited to participate.
Looking at his record, it is easy to see that Ken
Loeffler has established himself as one of the truly
great coaches in the basketball game. We salute
you. Ken — the Knute Rockne of Collegiate Basket-
ball.
JAMES J. HENRY
Mr. James J. Henry, the Athletic Director et
La Salle College for the past 20 years, has been the
key factor for the school's emergence as a power
in the realm of sports.
Upon his arrival at La Salle, the College was
literally unknown in the field of sports. But, as the
years progressed, so did the sports program, for
under Mr. Henry's able leadership the school has
made tremendous strides as a winner in many of
the collegiate circles. Representatives from La Salle
In sports like basketball, swimming, track, and
crew rose to the very pinnacle of success, and In
this rise many titles were captured both on the
local and national levels. Such a record is the
result of Mr. Henry's policies which are wisely go.v-
erned by his sound judgment.
Mr. Henry, In the often thankless position of
Director of Athletics, well deserves the acclaim.
Congratulations for a job well done.

The first La Salle victory on its quest for the
N.C.A.A. title was perhaps the most exciting.
With only four seconds of play left in the last
quarter of the Fordham game and with a score of
68 to 66, La Salle came up with some expert and
fast team work that culminated in Fran O'Mal-
ley's tieing the score. In the overtime play La
Salle moved ahead to emerge from this first test
with a score of 76 to 74.

a rousing 92-76 victory and the N.C.A.A. cham-
pionship in their first year of competition.
A momentary setback for La Salle sees Bradley's

Dick Blaczyk probably has some interesting
thoughts as he tries to blast himself as well
as his ball from the sand trap.
Courtney's fiends of the fairway are La Salle's outlet for
those who enjoy fresh air and long hikes. The golf squad
has had a successful season as its veterans and novices have
both come through with stellar performances.
Sparked by seniors such as Les Seagraves, Leon Trojon,
and Marv Kallish, the team has been aided by the "profes-
sional" coaching of Government Prof. Bob Courtney.

The Explorer team looks pretty chipper after their first round of play.
Could be Joe McCafferty has controlled that slice and has turned in

A
WORD
OF
THANKS
The election of officers and the ensuing selection of a Class Moderator were the
first formal steps toward the organization of the Class of 1954. However, the spade-
work in planning for organization was accomplished by a small, disinterested group
upon whom the mantle of Senior was soon to fall. This preliminary planning obviated
confusion and made our path smooth.
The paramount item on the agenda of our first meeting as Seniors, held in early
October, 1953, was the election of officers and, when the results of this historic
caucus were tallied, it was gratifying to learn that two of the foresighted planners
had been elevated to class officers; Raymond Vasoli was chosen as President and
Joseph Keown as Secretary. A third, Joseph Matthews, was elected President of
the Student Congress, a most appropriate selection.
To our Class Officers, one and all, we say: "Thanks! for a job well done. We
appreciate what you have done for us. You earned our undivided loyalty."

JOSEPH MATTHEWS
President
Congress Members
If you ask any college graduate what one incident stands out most in his college
career, oftimes he will mention some special event which did not take place in the
classroom and which was not even part of his curriculum. Perhaps he may mention
a dance that he attended, or a committtee on which he served, or some other social
activity; some experience that he shared with his classmates and now looks back upon
it as something he will always remember.
Now these social activities connected with a college education just don't happen
by chance. They are part of a carefully arranged and executed plan usually conducted
by some governing body. Here at La Salle the governing body of the Evening Divi-
sion is the Student Congress, a group of men who give freely and unselfishly of their
time and ideas to promote the social welfare of the student body. It all started in
the fall term of 1949, and through its committee system the Congress has grown and
comp'led an enviable record of progress and success that any student governing
organization would be proud to claim. The present administration began its activities
in the summer of 1953 by laying the ground work for the activities of the school year.
The spring dance marks the climax of all the efforts put forth by this group. Now
the students of the Evening Division can look to the undergraduates to continue with
this fine record of achievement. Only time and effort will confirm the fact that the
spirit of the Evening Division student is one of sacrifice, determination, and progress.

A record turnout of 40 students of the Evening
Division joined the January 29 weekend group at
St. Joseph's-in-the-hlills to make their third
annual retreat. James Sammon '53, served as
captain of the entire retreat, a very distinguished
position which he has held for the past three
years. Edward Dunphy '54, and Charles Boyce
'56, served as associate captains.
ADORATION SOCIETY
During the Marian Year the Evening Division
Adoration Society has stepped up Its activities
schedule and Increased Its membership through
the efforts of Charles Boyce, Pres.; Robert Kelly,
Vice-Pres.; Richard Prendergast, Sec; and Wil-
liam Lenihan, Jr., Treas. The society sponsored,
as the highlight of the fall semester, the Third
Annual Retreat to Malvern, which was one of the
most successful ever held. Following this the
members put their concentrated efforts behind
the promoting of the Third Annual Communion
Breakfast, and the showing of several films to the
student body. The society has also made a suc-
cessful effort to Increase the number of students
who supported the Marian Year Devotions held
each Thursday before class In the College Chapel.
These Devotions were led by the Chaplain, Fr.
Mark hieath, O.P., and consisted of The Rosary
and Benediction.
THIRD ANNUAL COMMUNION BREAKFAST
Commenfs of the over 300 guests, faculty members, students, and friends
reflected the success of the Evening Division's Third Annual Communion
Breakfast.
Following Mass, which was celebrated by the Rev. Mark hieath, O.P., Col-
lege Chaplain, in the auditorium, a very tasty breakfast was served, by Degen-
hardt of Philadelphia, in the Field hlouse. Immediately afterwards, everyone
sat back, relaxed, and listened to a very fine program of speakers, moderated
by the genial and efficient toastmaster, Mr. Lawrence G. Bowman, of the
English Department.
Heading the list of distinguished guests was the Right Reverend Monsignor
Francis J. Furey, Rector of St. Charles Borromeo Seminary, who gave a very
inspiring talk on the Immaculate Conception and the purpose of the Marian
Year. Other notables present were Brother E. Stanislaus, President of the
College; Brother G. Paul, Dean of the Evening Division: Brother G. Robert,
first Christian Brother to teach in the Evening Program; Brother E. James,
Director of the La Salle Community; Brother F. Christopher, Dean of the
College; Dr. Joseph Sprissler, former Director of the Evening Division; and
Mr. James Sammon, C. A. Captain of the La Salle Malvern Retreat, along

ACCOUNTING ASSOCIATION
Four years ago this association was organized
by a group of students to pronnote and foster
better relations among the accounting students of
the school. Since that tinne Its rapid rise as one
of the most active groups in extra-curricular
activities has been watched and lauded by all.
Its varied program includes banquets, forums
and regular meetings at which persons from all
fields of accounting appear. There have been
speakers representing the Government, C. P. A.
offices, special accounting schools and different
phases of industry.
The departing seniors will long remember the
good times and valuable information gained
through their association with the Accounting
Association.

EVENING
(e(DiTiiiiiS(Siriisi
DIVISION
The 1953-54 academic year was the third year of publication for the Evening Divi-
sion Collegian. The first issue of the Evening page was seen in October, 1951, and
since that time the news of the Evening Division has been incorporated in all the
issues of the College newspaper. Raymond Vasoli, a member of the class of fifty-four,
was the founding father of the Evening page. Since his retirement from the Editor-
ship, two men have served as the leader of the paper — Edward Gibbons '53 and this
year's editor, Frank Kerr ''54. The Evening Collegian has portrayed the social and
scholastic happenings of the academic year to the student body as accurately and
vividly as possible. Their aim has always been to serve the student body in the true
tradition of newspapermen, and three years of loyal service has proven their devotion
to their goal.

The French Club of the Evening Division is now in its
third year of campus activity. To date, it has been one of
the most active of the evening organizations.

ator, Dr. John A. Guischard, and its president, Richard J.
Prendergast, the school year 1953-54 sav/ the club hold Its
most successful affair, the annual Social Night which was held

these included trips to various points of French interest in
and around Philadelphia, French films, and the annual French
play, this year's presentation being "La Farce de Patelin."

school year 1954-55. These are: William F. Boyle, President;
James J. Sproul, Vice-President; Richard J. Prendergast,

MARKETING ASSOCIATION
Since its inception in 1952 as the seventy-
seventh student chapter of the American Maricet-
ing Association this group has risen until it has
taken its place among the leaders in the field
of extra-curricular activities. The club is com-
posed of men who have expressed a desire to
keep in close contact with the rapidly progressing
developments in the field of Marketing. The
club was headed by Walton Bolger, President;
John Carberry, Vice-President; Art Le Roy,
Secretary; Charles Wirth, Treasurer; with Mr.
Bannon, Instructor in Marketing, ' serving as
Moderator. The activities schedule was made
up of regular meetings and dinner meetings at

which prominent speakers from the various fields
of Industry passed on current information and
Marketing trends to the group. There were also
field trips to different business organizations to
give the members an Insight into the actual
workings of everyday business.
Social activities in the form of dances rounded
out the schedule and provided enjoyable get-
togethers for the members and their dates. The
success of the club in the past term has been
shown by the fact that its membership has in-
creased to an all time high and the prospects for
the future look even brighter for La Salle's
Marketeers.

SOCIETY FOR ADVANCEMENT OF MANAGEMENT
The 1953-54 scholastic year saw the La Salle College Chapter of
the Society for Advancement of Management (SAM) embark on an
ambitious schedule of activities. The success of this program was
demonstrated by the recognition received. Our La Salle group won
the annual Student Chapter Award presented' by the Philadelphia
Senior Chapter to the local student chapter showing the most out-
standing acievement during the school year 1953-54. The SAM is
the recognized national professional society of management people
in industry, commerce, government, and education. Student chap-
ters are organized in leading colleges and universities offering major
courses in management. The discussions and general programs of
the chapters are directed toward encouraging and stimulating inter-
est and understandng in scientific principles of management.
In furtherance of this purpose. La Salle College was host to the
Sixth Annual Student Conference sponsored by the Philadelphia Area
Student Chapters in March, 1954.. The remainder of the year's
activities consisted of forums, plant tours, and presentations by
recognized speakers on various aspects of management.

A HISTORY OF THE 1954 GRADUATING CLASS
The history of the 4th Evening Class to gradu-
ate from La Salle College is an interesting one to
look upon in brief retrospect.
During the nnonth of February, 1949, 135 men
nnatriculated, the largest nnid-year enrollment
since evening classes had begun. In September,
1949, the fall registration was 205, making a total
year's enrollment of 340. Due to the normal
amount of drop-outs, the present total of 104
graduates was reached.
The first two years were comparatively un-
eventful with respect to extra-curricular activities.
There was a general feeling prevalent that one
had to learn to study all over again. An air of
reluctance permeated the freshmen and sopho-
more groups preventing -^hem from doing any-
thing that did not pertain to scholastic work.
The loosening-up period and eventual swing
Into college life took place from September,
1951, to March, 1952, when La Salle College's
great quintet, led by All-American Tom Gola,
rose to national prominence by winning the cov-
eted National Invitation Tournament. "Team
support" was the much used expression of the
day: and school studies were temporarily cast
into a secondary role. The tournament in March,
1952, saw the Evening School turn out in force
for several trips to New York's Madison Square
Garden. This first taste of basking in the glory
of one's institution was pleasant.
Many activities were begun or perpetuated by
the 1954 graduating class;
1. Some of its members began what is known
today as the Evening Division Section of the
La Salle Collegran. They organized a staff of
their own and worked independently, but in co-
operation with the day school staff.
2. The First Annual Communion Breakfast was
staged on April 6, 1952, by our own class mem-
bers to honor the Christian Brothers. It was a
rousing success ' with 318 turning out for the
affair.
3. Although Senior Class Officers were elected
for the first time in the 1953 class, it was once
again 1954 grads-to-be who introduced the idea
and did much of the necessary backstage work
to turn the idea into a reality.
Several of our fellow classmates rllsed the
prestige of the 1954 class by becoming chair-
men of various activities or serving on the many
committees throughout the campus. Others took
an active part in the Student Congress of the
Evening Division, building up and making this
group one of the most highly respected in the
college. In a word, our members have conducted
themselves admirably.
Then, in our senior year, we saw the many
senior functions run smoothly. The Senior Stag
brought everyone closer together. Our Dinner-
Dance at the Ross hlouse was acclaimed by many
for its precisely organized program. The beau-
tiful gift for the library presented to the Brothers
is a tradition-making gesture for other classes to
follow. And who can deny the Yearbook you
are holding from being recognized as an out-
standing piece of work — congruity at a height.
Our class has much to be proud of.
But, let us not think that our entire history is
behind us. Many of us has done his little bit, or
more, in building a better reputation for La Salle
College. hfowever, even though we conduct
ourselves as true gentlemen and persons of strong
character to extend this institution's reputation
for outstanding all-around education, we still
have another chapter of our history to write in
the future. La Salle College has given us an open
door to bigger things. We must never forget it.
It is our job to continue with the Alumni to repay,
in some measure, what the Christian Brothers
have so unselfishly given us. Your officers have
the firm conviction that this thought will always
live with the 1954 graduating class.
140
SENIOR DINNER DANCE
The traditional Senior Dinner Dance was held
on May 15, 1954, at Ross Hall In Gernnantown.
As the final note of the traditional "Good Night
Sweetheart" drifted away at the conclusion of
the affair, we realized that we had at last reached
the finale of our social activities as students of
La Salle. The seniors and their wives and sweet-
hearts, and our honored guests enjoyed an eve-
ning that will long be remembered.

AN OPEN LETTER
TO THE SENIOR CLASS
The Class of 1954 will shortly make the transi-
tion from the ranks of the undergraduates to the
ranks of the alumni.
This transition is both obvious and automatic.
But we are wondering with what facility the
transition will be accomplished. We are won-
dering if the Class of 1954 will be merely names
to add to the addressograph plates, or whether
the Class of 1954 will take its place in the Alumni
Association as a vigorous, dynamic unit capable
of contributing concrete help in the task of
perserving and embellishing the reputation of
La Salle College.
As members of the graduating class you are
well aware of the fact that you have set an
admirable precedent. You are the first class in
the history of the Evening Division to elect senior
officers, and to form a working senior organiza-
tion. For this accomplishment, we offer our
sincere congratulations.
But, gentlemen, we entreat you to utilize this
organization to its fullest possible advantage
when you become part of the Alumni. You have
established a sturdy framework, it now remains to
build upon it when you graduate. Don't be con-
tent to be merely names, be a voice.
Though you may not be presently aware of it,
you will learn that the awarding of a degree from
La Salle College has many ramifications. The
awarding of a degree means, for instance, that a
three-fold responsibility is Imposed upon you.
This responsibility encompasses primarily, your
school. Henceforth, you must always conduct
yourselves In a manner that will reflect nothing
but credit upon the name of La Salle.
Next, this responsibility extends to your fellow
alumni, and finally to all undergraduates of
La Salle, present and future.
You can best meet this responsibility by fos-
tering a strong alumni association. Make this
association even more valuable by bringing to it
a unified organization dedicated to wholehearted
participation in all activities.
